Kris Baines...may it be our prayer that even when we experience stress or nerves from these situations or triggers, that the Lord would help us respond in such a way that He is glorified and praised through it.

Kris BainesAs we make the time and effort to communicate well, our relationships will become stronger, the more people will know where they stand, and the less difficult situations we will find ourselves in. Also, we will gain the trust of others more; and that’s important, especially when you are serving others in a local church context.
